Comment:

 I added the suggested ones and a couple more into the same rewrite in
 which we fixed the trailing space. WordPress doesn't allow for these
 characters in the URL so I think it's safe to assume that if they're in
 there, at the end of the URL, it's a mistake.

 Please do tell me if you disagree, if so I could move this to
 `redirect_guess_404_permalink` without issue of course.
